We had a fantastic weekend break at Woodlea this January (2015). The house has been recently refurbished to a very high standard and was very comfortable with good size rooms and a lovely real fire. The views over Rosedale are spectacular, and the village (shops and cafe etc) are only a short walk from house. Lots of great walking and country pubs/restaurants in area (one at end of drive which had live music night we were there). We had a day a Whitby which is less than an hours drive from cottage. Very relaxing break in a lovely spacious house, we will definatly return.

This was a family holiday with 6 adults and 1 baby. The house is very spacious set in very nice and well maintained grounds with wonderful views over the valley and hills. The property has been very well equipped but some of the items are in need of replacement . in particular the washing machine, fridge and tumble dryer. The house is listed as 4 star but imo falls a little short of this, but could quickly be brought back up to grade with some redecoration, upgrade of items listed above and better cleaning. Most of the house was clean upon our arrival but some of the bedroom floors were quite dirty. The house is listed as suitable for 8 adults. This is possible but at a push. The top floor rooms have very shallow ceilings and whilst ideal for children are very tight for adults and there is little in the way of storage there for clothes etc. The house is about 0.7 miles up a dirt/stone track and there is parking for 3 vehicles. This is on road parking whilst it is advertised as off road. We found it difficult to turn our cars around, it needs a 5 point turn with someone watching you, although if you go a further half mile down the track there is a good though rough turning point there is. The pub nearby is excellent and the track in front of the house leads on a nice walk to the nearby village of Lastingham which is a must. In short a very nice House but due a bit of an upgrade
